Why do ice cubes always float at the top of a glass of water?

Because water is a very very very very very unusual substance ... It's
the only known substance whose solid form is less dense than its liquid
form near the same temperature.

In other words, water is the only known substance for which a solid lump
of it floats in a liquid glass of it.

If that were not true ... if the behavior of the density of water around its
freezing temperature were the same as the density of all other known
substances ... then life on Earth would be impossible.

Think about that for a while !  Ya gotta admire whoever it was that designed water !

An electron travels with speed 6.0×10^6 m/s between the two parallel charged plates shown in the figure. The plates are separate
svlad2 [7]

Answer:

B= 3.33 m T

Explanation:

Given that

Speed ,C= 6 x 10⁶  m/s

d= 1 cm = 0.01 m

V= 200 V

The electric field E given as

V= E .d

E=Electric field

d=Distance

V=Voltage

200 = 0.01 x E

E=20000 V/m

The relationship between magnetic and electric field given as

E= C x B

20000 = 6 x 10⁶   x B

B =3333.333 x 10⁻⁶ T

B= 3.33 x 10⁻³ T

B= 3.33 m T

Therefore the magnetic filed will be 3.33 m T.
